South of the border

I’m soaking up the sun in Mexico….with four layers of sunscreen on mind you. If the sun touches my bare skin I turn into a giant walking freckle within 2 seconds flat…no exaggeration.

We are being super duper lazy…. I’m a master at being super duper lazy. My poor husband has been in the churro truck line pretty much the whole time we’ve been here fetching chocolate filled churros for his lazy wife and his kids sleeping on the beach. He loves us.

Before we left I got these fun charm packs….this fabric line is so bright and summery…it reminds me of Mexico. The fabric is Treasures and Tidbits by Piece O’ Cake Designs for Robert Kaufman.

And since I’m pretty sure I’m going to be stuck on the beach in a churro induced coma for the next week…I’m going to give them away. Leave a comment on this post to enter….I’ll choose a random winner sometime in a few days.

P.S. If you never hear from me again…its because I’m the proud new owner of a churro truck and I’m staying here forever.

Sounds like you are having a great time! If you invest in the Churro truck and live there forever, let me know...I've never had a chocolate filled churro so I would definitely have to swing by for a visit:o)

I've never had a filled churro but it sounds delightful. And since it again is snowing here, please send some warmth north. Thank you for the fun sprocket pillow tutorial. Not quite finished with them but it sure has been fun selecting fabrics to bring some spring to my brown family room.

oh i'd give anything to be in the warm sun & not in the snowy weather we are experiencing here! snow in april... doesn't that just make you want to give me free stuff?! if anything, out of pitty?!! have a blast! mexico sounds dreamy!

Choccie filled churro yummo! You lucky thing. How precious does your sleepy baby look... I will get to Mexico one day (first pay off the new Bernina). Love these fabrics, I'm crossing my fingers and toes. :)

wow, you are on holiday and still doing a giveaway, thats fantastic. Here in the UK it is cold and grey and your pictures have given me hope that we might see the sun sometime soon!! Enjoy the rest of your trip

I am so jealous .. we are heading towards winter down here in lil ol' NZ! :-( If you cant be bothered sending those fabrics all the way here I would LOVE to have them! :-) Have a fantastico holiday!! :-)

I would love a holiday in Mexico! Oh well, I will suffice to hitting the beach an hour and a half away - we apparently have some of the nicest in Australia so i will have to believe it. But no Churio truck!! Such gorgeous fabrics - giving away?? Too much sun! Would love to help you out with them?

Warmth? Whats that? Here in NY Spring isn't here yet.:( I'm green with envy, have a great time it looks wonderful. Chocolate churros who new? Sounds tasty, enjoy. Thanks for thinking of the not as fortunate, who are still wearing flannel pj's. Have a great time! ;>

Enjoy the beach for all of us...LOL! If you are able to see some of the preparations for the easter celebrations, your kids will love it! I used to live an hour from the border and I do miss it some days! Thank you for a beautiful giveaway!

I lived in Mexico for two years and had a few too many churros :) the best was the birthday parties that we went to that had the churro maker there--and you could have as many as you wanted--bad! Enjoy yourself! Thanks for the giveaway!carinmargaretshopechest@yahoo.com

Ooh! Pick me! Consider it reparations for your lovely trip to Mexico (with Churros!) while I'm stuck in a spring snowstorm in South Dakota! They really are lovely fabrics! Enjoy that vacation and thanks for the giveaway!

I would love a vaca like that! My trips are usually traveling with my son to visit my family while my husband stays home and works. Not complaining, just saying a little bit of what you are experiencing would be a nice change. Have fun and thanks for the giveaway!

We used to have a Mexican restaurant in town that made the best churros! I always say I'm going to make them at home, but I don't... Ps. The fabrics are gorgeous! So sunny! Perfect for my sunny Florida sewing room, don't you think?! ;)

My husband and I are going to Mexico in a few short weeks (first vacation in seven years!) and your post made me even more excited about our trip! I can't wait to be super lazy and stuff myself with churros, too!!
